With Worley done, the 2016 draft looks like one of our worst ever


TN05

Recommended Posts

1. Vernon Butler
2. James Bradberry
3. Daryl Worley
4. Zack Sanchez
5. Beau Sandland

The only two left on the roster are Bradberry and Butler. Butler has done next to nothing, and Bradberry is... fine. Worley was never that good, Sanchez is on the practice squad, and Sandland never played a down for us.

This is just after two years and it's this bad. Butler might be gone in a year or two, and Bradberry isn't even a given for being a long-term starter either.

Is it really too early to say, or are we just loathe to admit it was that bad?

2 years in is too early to say especially when the players have showed flashes. Most corners don't get fully up to speed until year 3 or 4, Bradberry can still very well get there. He's way ahead of where Josh was this far in. And Butler hasn't even gotten a chance yet and has dealt with injuries. No it wasn't a good draft so far but things can easily change in a year or two.

I really don't think it can turn into a very good draft. I appreciate your hopefulness, but it's not very realistic at this point.

I also completely disagree on him compared to Norman. He's nowhere near the level of shutdown corner Norman proved he could be by 2014.

Depends on Butler.   He played fairly well at the end of last season.  If he improves, and becomes a player, then its not a bad draft.  In reality, keeping 2 out of 5 is about par for the course for most NFL drafts.

  At what point in 2012 or 2013 did Josh Norman prove anything resembling a shutdown corner? Is that why he barely played in 2013 and didn’t even start until mid 2014. What about that is proven?

    • fuging Christ dude this isnt hard.  Like at all.  I get you simping for this poo team is your thing but sometimes you have to look at reality.   Even removing his bum knee from the equation, none of this made sense.  He is 31.  He has been paid handsomely for his service here.  He was currently under contract for this season.  Why in the holy fug did anything have to be done 2 weeks before the season started.   The people for this move, in this thread are saying A) He deserved it (this is the nfl it doesnt work like that  B) It frees up cap space (then why in the fug didnt we do this in Feb or C) You logic (We are getting a deal at 53 million guaranteed for the next 3 years.   You realize with this deal we cannot cut or trade his ass for 3 years.  You understand this right?   So in my opinion we should have let this ride into the offseason and go from there, what he is going to threaten to walk, big fuging deal he would be 32 on a chronically bad knee, what other moronic franchise is going to give him 40 million up front?  It wasnt going to happen.   And you are acting like its impossible to replace a 32 year old RT with a bum knee.  Just go and draft someone, move Icky to RT.  There are tons of options instead of extending this dude 2 weeks before the fuging season.  The truth is Morgan and the shitheads in the FO fell for this dudes crying act and got all sentimental and shelled out another ext.  We are a poverty ass franchise that doesnt act professionally
    • Amazing what the prospect of being traded to Carolina will do for contract negotiations. 
    • 5 Im glad football is back but after the embarrassment that was the browns pre season game where our starting D made Sanders look like a serviceable NFL QB, I lost hope again for a successful Panthers campaign this year.  I do hope I’m wrong!
